Jersey Knit Dress – Little Girl
Super Cute little girl’s Jersey knit dress. I made this little cutie for my daughter’s friend for her birthday. Probably the Quickest little girls dress I have ever made! Make up a pattern(make a pattern from a dress you already have in the size you like), cut out the fabric (don’t forget seam allowance), sew it together, do a rolled hem on the bottom edges(see below) and put a little elastic on the arm. Turned out so cute! Made a little matching Knit Pom pom hair clip… go HERE to learn how to make one!

Necklace T-Shirt
Saw this awesome idea to paint a necklace on my little girls t-shirt. You can find the tutorial HERE… and I just had to make one for my little Samantha. It is really easy to make and you can add a little fabric flower to embellish it even more! Easy to do and very cute. The only advice I would give is to put more paint than you think on each dot. The more paint the puffier the dot after you steam it. The fabric paint is called “Velveteen” written up on the top edge of the bottle of fabric paint found at the craft store. It was intermixed with all the other…

Valentine Countdown
Here is a cute idea for a Valentine’s Day Advent Calendar or countdown to Valentine’s Day! I can’t take credit for this one, my best friend Tiffany thought of it, she is amazing. And my kids just love getting a little candy everyday until Valentine’s day…. She found these heart shaped party favors (came in a 30 pack so we split them) @ Michael’s craft store… We cut the vinyl out on the Silhouette and put them on each heart and filled with candy… And luckily they are magnetic so all we did was put some round little magnets on the fridge and put the hearts up.

Little Girl Apron and Potholder
Went to visit my sister last month and she created a pattern for this adorable child’s apron! We found the cutest fabric at Craft Warehouse to make it and man did it turn out cute….. So I decided to make a little hot pad to match. I entered it in the Prudent Baby pot holder contest in hopes of winning a brand new sewing machine!! They featured my pot holder on their site! Love it!! And as soon as the apron was complete my little girl just had to put it on and bake something! So we made some sugar cookies to celebrate Valentine’s Day coming up!

Christmas Crafts
Christmas Crafts…Thought I would share some photos of the Christmas Crafts that kept me busy this year… Family Letters for my Sister-in-law. You can find the tutorial HERE Nephew’s (bean bag) Name bags. So I was going to fill them with beans but they felt odd and I didn’t want them to throw them at each other and get hurt so I filled them with fiberfill and they are like little pillows. Made a matching bag so they can hang them on the door knob and throw them in. This was a surprise gift I made for my mother in law. I had all the supplies except the mini clothespins.…
